    Great plugin. I have been looking for one like this. How about two and three word phrases also?

    I have been needing a lot of help with keywords and this plug-in looks amazing. I found the post from you requesting to advertise on my blog http://www.onlinestruggle.com but I must say this is a tool I haven’t utilized and I’m looking forward to trying out tonight.

    Thanks for the great tool and I don’t know how I don’t have it already but I didn’t and I thank you for this. :)

      Well I only finished writing the plugin a day ago, so it would have been hard to get before that :)

    Good stuff Gary! Would it be possible for you to add an option, in which you only show the keyword density for the phrases I’ve added to the meta keywords in, for instance, the headspace plugin?

    I’d also consider adding a list of stop words for which you don’t show density. Personally I’ve always liked this list: http://tools.seobook.com/general/keyword-density/stop_words.txt

    Ow and please install a subscribe to comments plugin here ;)

      Thanks for the advice Joost. I’ll definitely add the stop words in the next update and look into the headspace plugin.

    Hello,

    your plugin sounds good.

    I am wondering if you could plan the chance to read a custom stopwords file, because my blog is in italian language and the seobook stopwords.txt does not cover my language.

    Regards,
    Nicola

    This is a wonderful start. I know there are online and offline services available to do this but having within the post editor is very convenient. This would be a great plugin if we could get just a couple of updates. Are you interested

    1) show order by highest to lowest density.
    2) allow for 2 and 3 word keywords
    3) filter stop/no stop
